January morning walk

Gala, looking out for Bali to pass by and continue on the chase.

I was a bit tired after a swift march along the road, avoiding other dogs/cars etc, but I didn't then go on to run in circles around an olive grove for fifteen minutes, like our dogs.
Apparently, according to an expert 'site hound' page I just consulted, Greyhounds (we have Glagos, Spanish greyhounds, pretty much the same model) are the second fastest animals on the planet after cheetahs, and they are only marginally faster.
I don't know what cheetahs do after a long sprint, but our two dogs returned to the house and the sofa for five hours, interrupting their sleep only for a spot of lunch.
